Donatella Versace Clothes Quotations

Some say the economy means that you have to persuade people to invest in clothes - to buy less things but more expensive things. I disagree - invest in jewelry, or a house, maybe, but not in fashion.

When I meet celebrities, I have to know what they are like and only then can I design. The clothes have to fit their personality.

For so long Versace couture was identified with celebrities and music, which I love. But at the same time it could overwhelm the clothes.

I know who the Versace woman is because I wear the clothes myself.

I love the mix of people who hang out at nightclubs now. Their individuality is an inspiration to me. The music they listen to, the clothes they wear and the way they wear them defines a street style that I love.

I don't think about making sexy clothes. It's just my instinct to make them.
